About this resource

Description

The sh digraph is one of the first two-letter sounds young readers learn, where s and h team up to make a single /sh/ sound. This Shawn is on a Ship SH Phonics Stories Reading Comprehension Worksheet helps first graders practice reading sh words in a fun, decodable story and then answer questions about what they read. Blending decoding and comprehension in one activity builds both phonics skills and reading confidence.

This SH digraph phonics reading worksheet features a short story, “Shawn is on a Ship,” packed with sh words like ship, shells, shore, shark, and shirt. Have your student read the story aloud, listening for the /sh/ sound, then fill in the bubble next to the best answer for each of the five comprehension questions. It works well for guided reading, literacy centers, morning work, or a quick reading check.

What’s Included

  • 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
  • Answer key
  • A decodable sh story with 5 multiple-choice questions

This Shawn is on a Ship SH Phonics Stories Reading Comprehension Worksheet helps children in three ways. First, reading connected text full of sh words strengthens digraph decoding far better than isolated word lists. Second, the multiple-choice questions build early comprehension skills like recalling details and answering with evidence. Third, the included answer key makes it easy to check work and see exactly which sh words or questions need another look.

To extend the learning, have children hunt for other sh words around the room or in their favorite books, then add them to a class chart. Families can play “I Spy” with sh sounds, write silly sh sentences together, or act out Shawn and Sherman’s adventure on the ship. Pairing playful sound practice with this story keeps phonics engaging while reinforcing reading comprehension.
